Our air conditioning service in OX44
We approach an installation much as a doctor approaches a patient: the survey diagnoses what the rooms need, the installation is the treatment and commissioning is the sign-off. At sign-off, the system is tested in each mode, the controls are explained and the F-Gas records are left with you. Common call-outs are for too many options and no clear advice and an old system that needs replacing, on ceiling cassettes, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems.
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access.
- You send photos, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
- Each room is sized and the unit positions agreed, then you get a fixed-price quote.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
- Connections are made, checked for leaks and pulled down to a vacuum.
- It’s switched on, checked and handed over with its records.

Air conditioning across OX44: local notes
In OX44, we install in places such as Chalgrove, Garsington and Little Milton and well beyond. We cover every place we list for OX44, 12 in all.
Message us from anywhere in OX44 and you will hear back the same working day. For a breakdown, use the 24/7 line.
Chalgrove: Older streets near Church of St Mary may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes. About 4 miles north-east stands Adwell House. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.
Common problems we fix in OX44
Poor sleep is one of the most common reasons homeowners ask about air conditioning. Once a bedroom has soaked up heat during the day, opening a window may not bring the temperature down far enough, particularly when there’s no breeze.
The things we are asked about most include:
- Old electric heaters you’d like to replace with something more efficient
- A room that’s unbearable on warm days
- A portable unit with a hose out of the window
- A study or office that overheats during the day
What happens if it’s left?
Putting up with another summer of portable units and fans rarely makes sense. A fixed system removes the heat to the outside, runs more quietly in the room and can usually heat as well, so it works for you in winter as well.
Comparing quotes
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
- How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
- What paperwork you will receive afterwards
After we’ve gone
So the system stays in good health:
- Have the system serviced once a year
- Shut doors and windows when it’s on
- Wash or vacuum the filters as the manual describes
- Keep the F-Gas records, commissioning details and warranty information together
Before we leave, the system is commissioned and tested in each mode. Once it’s running properly, we take you through the controls and settings so you know how to get the best from it.
Book an annual service. The engineer cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small problems early and keeps the warranty paperwork right where servicing is a condition.
System by system
Wall-mounted split systems
Single-room split systems are typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT, with supply, fitting, commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork included. Where you sit in that range depends on the pipe run, access and electrics.
Outdoor unit positions
On flats and terraced houses, space outside is often the deciding factor. Every option is checked on the survey, and tell you about any permissions you may need.
FAQs for OX44
What size air conditioning unit do I need?
We size each room on the survey, from its size, glazing, orientation and use. Too small, and it runs flat out; too big, and it switches on and off and wastes energy and we explain the output we recommend.
How quickly will you reply?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it and the fixed price is built on it.
Are you F-Gas certified?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We are also Checkatrade members.
Is OX44 in your area?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of the South East, and that includes OX44.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.
Is air conditioning possible in a flat?
That depends on the lease, the building and where the outdoor unit could go. Balconies, flat roofs and rear walls can all work, subject to consent, and we check the options on the survey. This is general information, not legal advice.
